Greyson Michael Chance, the 12-year-old pianist and songwriter whose version of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” has gone viral, talked about his meteoric rise to YouTube stardom on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show.” Lady Gaga herself put in a call to the show to say hello. “Greyson, you’re so sweet and so talented,” Gaga told him. “Stay away from girls and be focused.” The young performer then walked over to the piano and sang the song that has kicked up such a fuss.
